5-15 SCO OpenServer and SCO UnixWare Device Drivers from Compaq If using the Compaq Integrated Netelligent 10/100 TX Controller on a ProLiant 1850R server and you do not plan to use the SmartStart installation process to setup your server, you must install updated support software for your controller to connect properly to the network, refer to Appendix G, "Updating LAN Drivers" for instructions. Your server must have certain device drivers to operate under the SCO OpenServer and UnixWare 2.1.x operating systems. Drivers that are not bundled with SCO's shipping media are located on the Compaq SmartStart and Support Software CD. There are three methods to install the SCO operating system onto your server: An integrated Compaq SmartStart installation is available to assist you with installation of your server by automatically creating the Compaq System Partition with tools to help configure and diagnose your server. The Compaq SmartStart and Support Software CD also includes all the SCO UNIX device drivers for your system. Alternatively, selecting the "Manual Path" after booting the Compaq SmartStart and Support Software CD automatically creates the Compaq System Partition with tools to help configure and diagnose your server and allows you to use SCO's interview process. Depending on the operating system, it may be necessary to use the Compaq Boot Time Loadable Drivers (BTLD) diskette or the Compaq Host Bus Adapters (HBA) diskette along with the Compaq Extended Feature Supplement (EFS) diskette to install all the driver support. These can be downloaded onto floppies with tools available on the Compaq SmartStart and Support Software CD. To create these floppies, boot the Compaq SmartStart and Support Software CD and follow the instructions to create Supplemental Support Software diskettes. One of the diskettes on the Compaq EFS contains a bootable documentation diskette. Before attempting to install the SCO UNIX software, boot this diskette and read the README file for the Compaq EFS. It instructs you on how to use the BTLD or HBA diskettes along with the SCO installation media. Compaq ProLiant 1850R Setup and Installation Guide
